Is it possible that the Jacob Huber Jr. (who Dave claims was b. 1752 and died 1810) was the one in Berlin, Somerset County PA in the 1800 census? ?He is listed there as "Senior", but of course his father then of the same name was still living in another county in PA at that time, so technically the one in Somerset Co would have been a "Jr." The Jacob Huber married to Anna Christina Good Huber ?did die that very year on D 10, 1800 but he would have still been living when that census was taken in 1800. I could find no Jacob Huber or Hoover in the 1810 census in Somerset Co., so if Jacob Jr. died there that year before the census was taken that might explain why he isn't in that. I think it is true that men who have a son of the same name are often referred to as "Sr" even if they themselves have a father of the same name.? The Jacob Huber in Somerset Co. shows as a surety in 1799, but how much before that did he live there? ? I take it that the Jacob "Hoover" in the 1800 census in?Hopewell and Woodberry, (then) Bedford County, Pennsylvania was the one married to Anna Christina Good and who wrote his will as "Jacob Hoover of Woodberry T. on Nov 10 of that year. However there is a female in his house age 26 to 45 who is apparently unmarried, and his will refers to all three of his daughters as being married. Presumably his wife Anna (who was alive when he wrote his will since he refers to her in there) is the female over age 45 in his house. ?Can all of you who claimed descent from Jacob and?Anna Christina (Good) provide your input on who you think the other female was? Was one daughter already widowed? There is also a younger male, b. 1784 to 1790, who could be one of two grandsons who Jacob Hoover refers to in his will as being sons of his son Henry by his first wife who are separately provided for.

I descend from Jacob Hoover in Somerset co. His son moved to western Md. And my great grandmother was Sarah Hoover, daughter of his son, Carlisle Hoover. Sarah married William Raley. Let me know if you want to compare notes.
